Before FERREN, ROGERS and STEADMAN, Associate Judges.

STEADMAN, Associate Judge:

Appellant Sweat was a disappointed applicant for a Small Business Administration ("SBA") loan. He engaged in a street altercation with Thomas Peniston, an SBA loan officer, and was convicted of simple assault. D.C. Code § 22-504 (1981). The only issue on appeal is whether certain prior statements by Peniston consistent with his trial testimony were properly allowed into evidence. We affirm.
