It is a carry into dead ball territory for sure.

Thoughts
No, this is a good catch and pretty sure that applies to all sets of rules.

The fielder caught the ball while both were "in flight" and demonstrated possession after she landed.

Assuming this was out #3, the catch & carry would not be in effect. Had it been, each runner would have been awarded one base from TOP
