It's still that way.

Perhaps a good time to note that, in regards to concussions, the helemt has not been shown to provide superior protection to the mask. Last figures indicate that ratio of number of concussions to number of helmets is no better than the number of concussions to the number of masks. In MiLB hemets had a higher rate of concussions two years ago.
