For USSSA, it's an award of second base no matter which way the runner is heading.

That is, no matter which way the runner is heading, the base award is (one) the base that was left too soon on the catch, then (two) the next advanced base. The runner's direction when the ball was thrown or went out of play is irrelevant.
