The coach argued that B2 had to be tagged to be out and the ball should have remained live.
Not a close game so just looking to get it right.

Coach was right, you were wrong. Chalk it up to live and learn.
Where the heck do you see an interference?
There is a difference between a BR and a runner...check the rule book under "A runner is out when", you see nothing about retreating to the base they last touched!
