PER CURIAM

Tracy Yanzick-Rollins pled guilty to possession of a controlled substance. I.C. § 37-2732(c)(1). The district court sentenced Yanzick-Rollins to a unified term of five years, with a minimum period of confinement of two years. The district court retained jurisdiction and sent Yanzick-Rollins to participate in the rider program. Following successful completion of her rider, the district court suspended the sentence and placed Yanzick-Rollins on probation. Yanzick-Rollins appeals, asserting that her underlying sentence is 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). Applying these standards, and having reviewed the record in this case, we cannot say that the district court abused its discretion.

Therefore, Yanzick-Rollins's judgment of conviction and suspended sentence are affirmed.
