I would put the runner on second. Reason being is that by calling the runner out, the defense was put in jeopardy thinking the runner was retired and the inning was over. More than likely the coach on offense won't like it, but to me that's the right call.
I actually had a very similar situation in a high school tournament last year. Bases loaded, two out bang-bang play at first. I call BR out and defense starts heading to dugout. First base coach states emphatically that F3 pulled her foot. I ask my partner and he says she did. After conferring with my partner, we brought loaded the bases again allowing only one run to score. Third base coach and I had a few words but I stood by my ruling. Ended up, it didn't matter. The next girl hits one over the fence. Game over by run rule.
