   OPINION

SULLIVAN, Judge

Appellant, Dashaun Bush (Bush) appeals his sentence for Carrying a Handgun Without a License, a Class C felony.

We affirm.

Bush contends that it was manifestly unreasonable for the trial court to impose the presumptive term of four years and suspend three years, leaving an executed sentence of one year. The trial court also ordered Bush to serve one year on probation. Sentencing decisions rest within the sound discretion of the trial court. Ballinger v. State (1999) Ind.App., 717 N.E.2d 939, 947. We will not revise a sentence authorized by statute unless such sentence is manifestly unreasonable in light of the nature of the offense and the character of the offender. Sanders v. State (2000) Ind.App., 724 N.E.2d 1127, 1134; Ind. Appellate Rule 17(B). Furthermore, when a trial court imposes the presumptive sentence, it has no obligation to explain its reasons. Morgan v. State (1996) Ind., 675 N.E.2d 1067, 1073.

Here, the trial court imposed the presumptive sentence and then suspended three years. Bush did not submit any evidence of the existence of mitigating factors. The only mitigating factor listed in the presentence report was Bush’s young age, and the only aggravating factor listed was Bush’s history of criminal activity. In light of this, we will not say that the sentence imposed was manifestly unreasonable.

In Wiggins v. State (2000) Ind.App., 727 N.E.2d 1, 11, trans. denied, a panel of this court held that “when a trial court adjusts a presumptive sentence by suspending a portion of that sentence, the record should disclose what factors were considered to be mitigating or aggravating circumstances.” That panel then concluded that it is necessary in such instance for the trial court to explain its sentencing decision. In our view, Judge Garrard’s dissent in Wiggins correctly observes that the majority, in relying upon Morgan v. State (1996) Ind., 675 N.E.2d 1067, reads that decision too broadly. In requiring the record to reflect what aggravating and mitigating factors the sentencing court considered, the Morgan court was dealing not only with suspension of a portion of one of three sentences imposed, but with the fact that the court had ordered consecutive sentences. The latter fact clearly dictates consideration and recitation of the aggravating circumstances as balanced against any mitigating circumstances considered. Becker v. State 1998 Ind.App., 695 N.E.2d 968. In any event we decline to follow Wiggins v. State insofar as it would require a recitation of mitigating circumstances in order to justify suspension of all or a part of a presumptive sentence.

The judgment is affirmed.
