    PER CURIAM
    Lloyd Harrison Harrod, III pleaded guilty to aggravated assault on a law enforcement
    officer, Idaho Code §§ 18-915, 18-901, 18-905, with a firearm enhancement, § 19-2520; eluding
    a peace officer, I.C. § 49-1404(2); and unlawful possession of a firearm I.C. § 18-3316. The
    district court imposed a unified twenty-five-year sentence, with eight years determinate, for the
    aggravated assault charge and a five-year determinate sentence for each of the other two charges.
    All sentences were ordered to run concurrently with one another. Harrod appeals, contending
    that his 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, Harrod’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
