Override call

I saw an NCAA game in which a runner on first tried to steal second. The catcher threw to second. It was a close play. The base umpire signalled "safe!". Immediately, the HP umpire pointed to second base and shouted "HE'S OUT!!!".

Can the HP umpire override a judgement call made by a base umpire? There was no further discussion. He was out. (He looked out to me.)
