MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Defendant pleaded guilty to the crime of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree and was sentenced to 3 to 9 years in prison. We are unpersuaded by defendant's contention that the sentence imposed was harsh or excessive. Given defendant's criminal background, which was amassed over a short period of time, and that the sentence was consistent with the plea agreement, we find no reason to disturb the sentence imposed by County Court (see People v. McCray, 243 A.D.2d 953;People v. Roberts, 186 A.D.2d 842).
Cardona, P.J., Mercure, Crew III, Spain and Carpinello, JJ., concur.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
