Team control ends during a try. The 3-second count only applies when there is team control. Therefore, the 3-second count is discontinued during a try. If the offensive team then secures the rebound, you may start a new 3-second count.

Also, can the player who shot the ball retrieve it himself (as long as it was a valid shot attempt) even though it did not hit the rim or is this a traveling violation?

Cha-
ching!!
Player and team control both end during a try. Therefore, the player may rebound his own airball, as long as the official deems it a try.

a local high school coach in our area told me as long as it is a valid shot attempt that the shooting player can retrieve the ball even if it does not hit anything.
