I called INT (from my position at C) right after the collision, ball a little before or after its apex.

One p.o.'d coach... I lost no sleep on that one.
If you felt the catch was likely (or probable), that call would be correct. I've never been told the catch needs to be nearly certain. In fact, since the wording is nearly identical - we've been told to have the same expectation of a likely catch on this as we would in calling IFF.
