Why isn't this a shot?

It is a shot ("try"), but there's no loss of team control:
NCAA 4-13 (Def'n of "In-control---player, team")
Art. 3. Team control shall continue until the ball is in flight during a try for goal, an opponent secures control or the ball becomes dead.
Since the ball was swatted before the try, there's still team control, so the play described is a backcourt violation.
I wouldn't have gotten this right either! Thanks for sharing...
