No. 97-2187.
United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
Dec. 18, 1997.

Before MURPHY, JOHN R. GIBSON, and MAGILL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.

1
Rafael Ramon Williams pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute cocaine base (crack) in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), 846, and was sentenced to 216 months.  Williams appeals, challenging the four level enhancement applied to his sentence by the district court1 for being an organizer or leader of a conspiracy involving five or more participants.  See U.S.S.G. § 3B1.1(a).  After reviewing the record, we conclude that it supports the findings of the district court regarding Williams' role in the conspiracy.  Accordingly, we affirm the judgment.
