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.

I think we could come up with other inequities caused by not calling the out when occurs. Do you think the OP is the NCAA rational for the delayed out call?
