Oil light comes on sometimes when I first put in the clutch to stop 200

On one of our 81's the oil pressure light comes on momentarily sometimes when I put in the clutch to stop. Like today, coming down a small hill using compression braking, then putting in the clutch at the bottom of the hill to stop, the light came on for a second. Other than in this type of situation, the light behaves normally. Any ideas on why it does this?
