Involving the same scenario (albeit in the middle innings).

The third base coach was watching the outfielder and told the runner on third base "go!" as soon as the ball was caught. The coach was not paying attention to the runner on second (who, of course, did not attempt to advance given that the caught ball was the second out).

I suspect that's the way things went down in the Yale-Dartmouth game. The Yale third base coach was likely focusing on the fly ball and the runner on third. When she saw that the runner on second was attempting to advance, she probably thought "NOOOO!!!!!"

:)
