How would you have called this

(2-man Fresh boys) 2nd half and ball is in V Teams frontcourt. I am lead opposite table, and the ball is about 6ft in front of me close to the three point line. Shot is taken and clearly blocked by defensive player. Whistle by my partner and play stops. It took a couple of seconds for me to realize he had called a foul on try and not off ball. A bit of an eruption follows as you can imagine. I go over to him and ask him if he feels good about that call. I told him that I saw the whole play and there was no foul. Forget that he was looking where he shouldn't be for a second. Realizing he messed up he asked what we could do since he had already reported the foul. My response: IW and the AP since there is no team control on once the shot is on it's way. Of course the arrow is going the other way. So now the V team is losing the foul and the ball. Given the level of play we went with clearing out the foul and POI. The coach was still pi$$ed, but atleast I didn't have to wack him. If he would have lost the foul and the ball I am sure that is what would have happend. Bring it on.. PS This was the first of two games (Soph was next with same two coaches). Oh! and at half time of the second game one of the grandparents had a stroke. I thought we were calling a good game up to that point, but I guess I was wrong. Ambulance came and grandpa was good fine.
