CALGARY, Alta. – Two winners have been announced in the Bauer and Boston Pizza Design-A-Mask contest, which for the 10th year in a row will allow the winners to see their designs worn by Canada’s National Junior Team goaltenders during the 2013 IIHF World Junior Championship, Dec. to Jan. in Ufa, Russia.

In the 12-and-under category, Isabel Jerome of Windsor, Ont., was chosen as the best design, while Stephanie Borsatti of Toronto, Ont., is the winner in the 13-to-18 category. More than 1,000 entries were received for the Bauer and Boston Pizza Design-A-Mask contest.

Apart from the thrill of having their designs chosen by the hockey industry’s top goaltender aficionados and worn by Canada’s netminders, Isabel and Stephanie will also receive their very own duplicate, custom-painted Bauer mask, which will be autographed by members of Canada’s 2013 National Junior Team.

“I’d like to congratulate Isabel and Stephanie on being chosen as this year’s winners of the Bauer and Boston Pizza Design-A-Mask contest,” said Brad Pascall, vice-president of hockey operations/national teams for Hockey Canada. “This contest gives young Canadians – whether they are players, fans or aspiring artists – the chance to be a part of Canada’s National Junior Team.”

Past winners have seen their masks worn by the likes of NHL first-overall selection Marc-André Fleury and gold-medal-winning netminders Jeff Glass, Justin Pogge, Steve Mason and Dustin Tokarski.
