We don't have all the feedback that will come from the NUS, but I would address your coach by saying the runner didn't commit an act of interference. The result may be that the ball hit the runner and that the fielder was therefore unable to make the play, but the runner committed no act that could be construed as interference.
The necessary act may be one of commission, or omission where an action would be expected; a case where neither occurred just isn't an act of interference.
