it's hard to imagine a "clear shot at the ground ball then having possession for a second before stick is checked."
Sounds like the posse was right on his tail. Best in that situation to kill the play once the ball comes out of the goal area and give it to the losing team. Think of it in these terms: the worst that should happen to the losing team is that they get a whistle and then a re-start with everyone five yards away. The best would be a clean break-away leading to a fast break. Your scenario above doesn't sound very "clean" so best to kill it immediately and award the ball.
