PER CURIAM.
Tyrell Wayne Hall pled guilty to robbery, I.C. § 18-6501, and two counts of possession of a controlled substance, I.C. § 37-2732(c)(1). The district court sentenced Hall to a unified term of twenty-five years, with a minimum period of confinement of ten years, for robbery and determinate terms of seven years for two counts of possession of a controlled substance. The district court ordered that the sentences be served concurrently. Hall appeals, arguing that his sentences are excessive.
Sentencing is a matter for the trial court's discretion. Both our standard of review and the factors to be considered in evaluating the reasonableness of the sentence are well established and need not be repeated here. See State v. Hernandez, 121 Idaho 114, 117-18, 822 P.2d 1011, 1014-15 (Ct. App. 1991); State v. Lopez, 106 Idaho 447, 449-51, 680 P.2d 869, 871-73 (Ct. App. 1984); State v. Toohill, 103 Idaho 565, 568, 650 P.2d 707, 710 (Ct. App. 1982). When reviewing the length of a sentence, we consider the defendant's entire sentence. State v. Oliver, 144 Idaho 722, 726, 170 P.3d 387, 391 (2007). Our role is limited to determining whether reasonable minds could reach the same conclusion as the district court. State v. Biggs, 168 Idaho 112, 116, 480 P.3d 150, 154 (Ct. App. 2020). Applying these standards, and having reviewed the record in this case, we cannot say that the district court abused its discretion.
Therefore, Hall's judgment of conviction and sentences are affirmed.
