1Opinion of the Court

JOHN R. GIBSON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Leland Ewing Sales and Eugene Kenneth Moore appeal from their sentences after being convicted of conspiring to distribute methamphetamine, 21 U.S.C. § 846 (1992). They allege that the district court 1 erred in applying a preponderance of the evidence standard in determining the amount of methamphetamine to attribute to their offenses for the purposes of applying the relevant Sentencing Guidelines. They also argue that the district court’s determination of the drug quantity was not supported by sufficient evidence. We affirm their sentences.
