delivered the opinion of the court:
After a jury trial, defendant, Todd E. Jackson, was convicted of one count of unlawful possession of cocaine with intent to deliver and two counts of unlawful delivery of cocaine. Defendant was sentenced to concurrent terms of imprisonment of 20, 14, and 8 years, and was assessed three mandatory drug assessment fees, one for each conviction. Defendant appeals and argues that: (1) the trial judge committed an abuse of discretion in sentencing him to a lengthy prison term, and (2) two of the three mandatory drug assessment fees must be vacated. We affirm the prison terms that were imposed upon defendant, vacate *798two of the three mandatory drug assessment fees, and remand this case to the trial court with directions to amend the defendant’s sentence and the memorandum of judgment accordingly.
FACTS
Defendant was found guilty by a jury of one count of unlawful possession of cocaine with intent to deliver (720 ILCS 570/401(a)(2)(A) (West 2004)), a Class X felony, and two counts of unlawful delivery of cocaine (720 ILCS 570/401(c) (2) (West 2004)), a Class 1 felony. After the findings of guilty, a sentencing hearing was held. A presentence investigation report (PSI) was prepared for the sentencing hearing.
At the start of the sentencing hearing, the trial judge asked the parties if either of them had any modifications to the PSI. The trial judge pointed out to the parties a correction that he had noticed that needed to be made.
Moving further into the proceeding, although the trial judge did not specifically mention “aggravation,” he allowed the State to call a witness to testify regarding defendant’s involvement in the beating of a police officer. The witness testified that the officer who was beaten specifically identified defendant as being involved and told investigators that everyone who was in the vehicle (defendant was one of the persons in the vehicle) started kicking him.
After the State finished presenting evidence, the trial judge asked for “mitigation.” Defense counsel presented the trial judge with a letter that defendant had written on his own behalf. The trial judge stated that he had read the letter and asked defendant if there was anything he wanted to add.
The trial judge then called for and considered the arguments and recommendations of the State as to sentencing alternatives. The State pointed out that defendant had a prior criminal history. The PSI indicated that defendant had been continuously involved with the criminal justice system from about the age of 16. In 2000, defendant was placed on court supervision as a juvenile for resisting a police officer. During his supervision period, defendant was kicked out of the house by his mother for being disrespectful and out of control. A violation report was filed in January of 2001 alleging that defendant had stolen a bicycle. A second violation report was filed in May of 2001 alleging defendant had committed a theft. A third violation report was filed in June of 2001 alleging defendant had committed a retail theft. In July of 2001, police notified the juvenile probation office that defendant had been accused of threatening his brother-in-law with a steel pipe. Also in July of 2001, a supplemental juvenile petition was filed alleging defendant had committed retail theft. Defendant’s *799juvenile court supervision was later terminated unsuccessfully after defendant was charged as an adult with aggravated criminal sexual abuse. As an adult, defendant was convicted of aggravated criminal sexual abuse in January of 2002 and sentenced to 36 months’ probation. Defendant’s probation was subsequently revoked after he failed to report and failed to obtain sex offender counsebng. In February of 2003, defendant was sentenced to a new term of 36 months’ probation. Defendant’s probation was again revoked after defendant had been present in a school zone (unlawful for a child sex offender) and had contact with his codefendant. Defendant was sentenced to a new term of 30 months’ probation in April of 2004. The instant offenses occurred in June and July of 2004 and defendant was arrested for the instant offenses in July of 2004.
After hearing the State’s argument and recommendation, the trial judge inquired of the State regarding the nature of the sentences to be imposed and confirmed that there was nothing about the offenses that made them mandatory consecutive.
The trial judge then called for the argument and recommendation of defense counsel as to sentencing alternatives. Defense counsel pointed out that the evidence regarding the beating of the police officer was presented in a hearsay format and that the victim was not brought before the court to testify. Defense counsel noted that defendant had not been convicted of that offense and that it was currently scheduled to be set for trial. Defense counsel commented that defendant was only 21 years old and that testimony was presented at trial which indicated that defendant may have committed the offenses because the undercover police officer had promised to get defendant a job. Defense counsel asked the trial judge to take into account defendant’s “youthful age” and the fact that defendant’s criminal conduct was initiated by the police. Defense counsel also pointed to references in the letter defendant had written to the trial judge (defendant’s statement in allocution) indicating that defendant’s family was having financial problems when the offenses were committed. The PSI indicated that although defendant had been kicked out of school for disciplinary reasons, he had obtained his GED while he was incarcerated and that he had some history of previous employment.
After hearing the arguments and recommendations of counsel, the trial judge imposed sentence. In doing so, the trial judge noted that he had considered the evidence presented at trial and at sentencing and had considered the PSI. The trial judge commented on defendant’s character (defendant had been disrespectful to his mother and had been kicked out of school for disciplinary reasons), on defendant’s prior criminal activity, and on the potential hardship the imprison*800ment of defendant would impose upon defendant’s family. The trial judge sentenced defendant to concurrent sentences of 20, 14, and 8 years’ imprisonment. In addition, three mandatory drug assessment fees were imposed upon defendant, one for each conviction. A judgment was taken against defendant for the total amount of fines, fees, and costs owed and a memorandum of judgment was filed.
Defendant filed a motion to reconsider sentence. In the motion, defense counsel alleged that the sentence imposed was not keeping with “the defendant’s past history of criminality, mental history, family situation, economic status, education, occupational or personal habits” or with the “alternatives available to the court to assist the defendant in his rehabilitation.”
At the hearing on the motion, defense counsel argued:
“It is Mr. Jackson’s contention that that [sic] sentence is excessive in keeping with his prior past criminal history, his family situation, economic status, his education and personal habits, and that there were other alternatives or a less lengthy sentence that would have been available to the Court which would have been of greater help in Mr. Jackson’s rehabilitation.”
The trial judge denied the motion to reconsider stating as follows:
“I took into consideration everything that I heard at trial, at sentencing, the PSI, considered all the statutes that apply, including those in aggravation and mitigation, and under the circumstances I think the sentence fits.”
This appeal followed.
ANALYSIS
Defendant first argues that the trial judge committed an abuse of discretion in sentencing him to a lengthy prison term. Defendant asserts that the trial judge failed to consider certain mitigating evidence, most notably, that only small amounts of cocaine were involved in the instant offenses; that he was enticed to commit the offenses by an undercover police officer; and that because he is only 21 years old, he has greater rehabilitative potential.
It is well settled that a trial judge’s sentencing decisions are entitled to great deference and will not be altered on appeal absent an abuse of discretion. People v. Streit, 142 Ill. 2d 13, 18-19, 566 N.E.2d 1351, 1353 (1991). A sentence which falls within the statutory range is not an abuse of discretion unless it is manifestly disproportionate to the nature of the offense. People v. Franks, 292 Ill. App. 3d 776, 779, 686 N.E.2d 361, 363 (1997). Although the reviewing court may reduce a sentence where an abuse of discretion has occurred (134 Ill. 2d R 615(b)(4)), the reviewing court should proceed with great caution and care in reviewing the propriety of a sentence and must not substitute *801its judgment for that of the trial court simply because the reviewing court would have weighed the factors differently (Streit, 142 Ill. 2d at 19, 566 N.E.2d at 1353).
Having reviewed the sentencing decision in the present case, we find that the trial judge did not commit an abuse of discretion. First, the term of imprisonment imposed on each offense is within the statutory range. See 720 ILCS 570/401(a)(2)(A) (West 2004) (any person who violates section 401 with respect to 15 grams or more but less than 100 grams of a substance containing cocaine is guilty of a Class X felony and shall be sentenced to a term of imprisonment of not less than 6 years and not more than 30 years); 720 ILCS 570/ 401(c)(2) (West 2004) (any person who violates section 401 with respect to 1 gram or more but less than 15 grams of a substance containing cocaine is guilty of a Class 1 felony); 730 ILCS 5/5 — 8—1(a)(4) (West 2004) (a sentence of imprisonment for a Class 1 felony shall be not less than 4 years and not more than 15 years). Second, it is clear from the record that the trial judge was familiar with the statutory procedure for conducting a sentencing hearing and the statutory guidelines for imposing sentence. In determining the appropriate sentence, the trial judge considered all of the factors in aggravation and mitigation, including those matters in mitigation cited by defendant in his argument before this court. All of those matters were either contained in the PSI or were part of the evidence presented at trial, which the trial judge specifically noted he was considering in determining the appropriate sentence. Furthermore, we do not agree that the amounts of cocaine involved in the instant offenses — 27.3 grams, 11.7 grams, and 2.8 grams — are “relatively small” amounts (as suggested by defendant) or that the fact that defendant was enticed to commit the offenses by an undercover police officer is in any way mitigating. The jury rejected defendant’s argument of entrapment.
While it is true that defendant’s young age suggests a greater potential for rehabilitation (see People v. Margentina, 261 Ill. App. 3d 247, 249, 634 N.E.2d 29, 31 (1994)), his prior involvement with the criminal justice system belies that notion. As a juvenile, defendant was adjudicated a delinquent minor for resisting a police officer and placed on court supervision. His supervision was subsequently terminated unsuccessfully. As an adult, defendant was convicted of aggravated criminal sexual abuse and was sentenced to a term of probation. Defendant’s probation was revoked twice and each time, he was resentenced to a new term of probation. Defendant was on the most recent term of probation when the instant offenses were committed. In addition, evidence was presented at sentencing to show that in June of 2004, defendant and a person defendant had previously been *802ordered not to have contact with were involved in the beating of a police officer at a party. Based on the evidence presented at trial and at sentencing, we cannot say that the terms of imprisonment imposed were excessive. We will not substitute our judgment here for that of the trial court. See Streit, 142 Ill. 2d at 19, 566 N.E.2d at 1353.
Contrary to the position taken by the dissent, there is no mandatory requirement that the trial judge recite all of the statutory factors before imposing sentence. People v. McDonald, 322 Ill. App. 3d 244, 251, 749 N.E.2d 1066, 1072 (2001). It is presumed that the trial judge considered all of the factors unless the record indicates to the contrary. See McDonald, 322 Ill. App. 3d at 251, 749 N.E.2d at 1072. In the present case, it is apparent from the matters stated by the trial judge in imposing sentence that he was persuaded by defendant’s bad character and history of prior criminal activity. Furthermore, when age and rehabilitation were again presented to the trial judge in the motion to reconsider sentence, the trial judge upheld the previous sentence that he had imposed, noting specifically that he had considered the factors in aggravation and mitigation.
In arguing that the trial judge committed an abuse of discretion, the dissent relies upon People v. Juarez, 278 Ill. App. 3d 286, 662 N.E.2d 567 (1996). However, in Juarez, the defendant received one year less than the maximum term. See Juarez, 278 Ill. App. 3d at 294, 662 N.E.2d at 573. In the present case, the sentence imposed was not at the upper limits of the sentencing range.
A more comparable case is People v. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d 149, 368 N.E.2d 882 (1977). In Perruquet, the 21-year-old defendant was sentenced to a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 20 years’ imprisonment for burglary. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 151, 368 N.E.2d at 882. The PSI indicated that defendant was married and had two children and was practically illiterate. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 151, 368 N.E.2d at 882-83. Defendant had been in and out of trouble with the law since age 14. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 151, 368 N.E.2d at 883. Defendant had a prior juvenile history. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 151-52, 368 N.E.2d at 883. As an adult, defendant had previously been convicted of theft and had a criminal damage to property case pending. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 152, 368 N.E.2d at 883. In imposing sentence, the trial judge made the following comments:
“ ‘Now, what I basically have here is a man who has a history of criminal offenses. You have reached the age of 21 and here you commit another offense, a serious offense, burglary. *** Now the fact that you have had a poor education; if you want to improve your life, you can do so in the penitentiary. But, there are a lot of people who can read and write and they still steal. Just because *803you learn to read and write and have a new trade doesn’t mean that you will stop stealing. And that is what you are going to have to determine for yourself. I feel sorry for your kids. I don’t like to do it but I’m going to do it because I cannot sit here conscientiously and say that a man who has committed one theft after another from the time he was 14 years old, is going to walk out of this Court Room and have a big change of heart and not steal people’s property.
Now, I am going to set the penalties so that you will have an opportunity to come out of the penitentiary; that you will have the opportunity to make a new life; but I am also going to set a maximum to where when you do come out of the penitentiary that either you are going to obey the law, on your own or else they are going to take you and virtually throw the key away. There has to be a stop somewhere and its up to you Mr. Perruquet.’ ” Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 152-53, 368 N.E.2d at 883.
On appeal, the appellate court in Perruquet reduced the sentence to between one and five years. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 151, 368 N.E.2d at 882. The supreme court reversed the appellate court and reinstated the original sentence. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 151, 368 N.E.2d at 882. In so doing, the supreme court noted that in light of defendant’s criminal history, it could not say that the sentence imposed by the trial judge was an abuse of discretion. Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 156, 368 N.E.2d at 885. As to the sentencing aspect, the facts of Perruquet are very similar to those in the present case. See Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 151-52, 368 N.E.2d at 882-83. The supreme court’s ruling in Perruquet supports the conclusion that we have reached here — that the trial judge did not commit an abuse of discretion in sentencing defendant to a lengthy prison term. See Perruquet, 68 Ill. 2d at 156, 368 N.E.2d at 885.
Defendant next argues, and the State agrees, that two of the three mandatory drug assessment fees imposed upon defendant must be vacated. See 720 ILCS 570/411.2(g) (West 2004) (where defendant is convicted of multiple offenses charged in a single charging instrument, only one assessment shall be imposed — the assessment for the highest class offense of which defendant is convicted). Accordingly, we vacate two of the three mandatory drug assessment fees imposed upon defendant and leave standing only a single assessment of $3,000, the assessment imposed upon the highest class offense of which defendant was convicted.
For the foregoing reasons, we affirm the prison terms that were imposed upon defendant, vacate two of the three mandatory drug assessment fees, and remand this case to the trial court with directions to amend the defendant’s sentence and the memorandum of judgment *804to show that defendant is assessed only one drug assessment fee in the amount of $3,000.
Affirmed in part, vacated in part, and remanded in part with directions.
