You'd need Foresight to counter the person going for their weapon, but making a Move that hits a projectile in the air on the way to them should be fine. I have one. Close Quarters Shielding stops melee and ranged. In it's track. Cold. Dead. As long as she has the stamina to create the shield around her hand, she's blocking.
If he wants to make a shield - or do something equivalent - he can do that. But tossing a rock is inherently different and comes with different strengths, weaknesses, and drawbacks. Yes, it's countering or blocking an attack. But, he cannot reasonably toss up a rock to reliably block ranged attacks that have not even been fired yet.
