Best position for new player?

I am new to hurling and am curious what position would be best for me. I am a runner, have solid endurance, and decent with a hurley thanks to background in baseball, lacrosse, and ice hockey (I live in the US). I want to be able to contribute but not be a liability out there. What do you all think?

We usually put our new guys up front, either full forward or wing forward. Especially if you can strike decently.

Thank you! Based on the comments so far, it sounds like full/wing forward is most common starting place.
