Fairfield got a commitment Monday from guard Tyler Nelson of Central Catholic HS in Boston.

Nelson visited the Fairfield campus a few months ago.

"I really liked the campus," Nelson said. "I met the coaches and really liked them. I think I can go there and have a chance to play as a freshman. I also liked the academics, I'm looking at business and a few other things (to major in)."

The 6-foot-2 Nelson averaged 16.2 points per game last season.
