This is exactly the part I was hoping would get discussed. At NCAA, you don't call the out. If, as intimated by a couple above, you DO call the out immediately, then you've removed the force, changing the result of the OP. You are NOT supposed to call this out, and as such, the force would remain in effect.

In high school, obviously, the force is off, the umpire called it (and as mentioned, hopefully loud), and the run scores if, as described, F2 doesn't tag the runner.
