PER CURIAM: Victor Joseph Sanguedolce, Jr., appeals from the district court judgment revoking his term of supervised release and sen- tencing him to twenty-four months of imprisonment. We affirm.

Sanguedolce was charged with seven separate violations of the terms of his supervised release. Following a revocation hearing the district court found sufficient evidence to demonstrate commission of all alleged violations save an allegation that Sanguedolce had failed to pay a fifty dollar special assessment. Sanguedolce argues on appeal that there was insufficient evidence to support the dis- trict court's findings.

Notwithstanding Sanguedolce's contentions, we note that Sanguedolce himself admitted to violating his supervised release by using both marijuana and cocaine. The evidence presented before the district court also revealed that Sanguedolce tested positive for cocaine use on three separate occasions. We find that this evidence alone is not only sufficient to justify revocation of Sanguedolce's supervised release, but compels it. See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e), (g) (1994); United States v. Clark, 30 F.3d 23, 25 (4th Cir. 1994).

Accordingly, we affirm the district court's judgment. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
