LOVELAND, Ohio – Bobby Capobianco is used to being on the move. He was born in Orlando, Fla., but has since lived in six other states. In August 2005, his family moved to Loveland, just outside of Cincinnati.

He’s already two-thirds of the way there, just 131 points short of that feat with 11 regular season games to go.
