Why goaltending?

The op does not say it was goaltending just that 'it was sent into the 3rd row'. If the ball was not on it's way down when the block occurred, I would award another shot for the violation and call an unsporting T for the blocked free throw. Not sure if that is correct though.

You need to reread the definition of goaltending. The "downward flight" provision applies only to a try or tap for goal.

On a free throw, any touch of the ball outside the cylinder is goaltending. 4-22
