It appeared to us that this happened simutaneously to her body landing on the floor. We did not call a travelling violation. Was this correct?
If the ball was pinned prior to her body hitting the floor, then we'd have a travel...correct?

Pinning the ball to the floor is not considered controling the ball.
So, I do not have any violation. A1 can stand up (without the ball) and try to continue the interruped dribble or pick up the ball to end the dribble. She can actually do the same activities while on the ground.
