Associate athletic director Carl Clapp, the No. 2 administrator in the University of Hawaii athletic department, will interview for the Montana AD job Monday in Missoula.

A spokesman for Montana said Clapp is one of four finalists for the position, and the school hopes to announce its choice soon after Labor Day.

Clapp declined comment.

Clapp, 53, has been at UH for almost six years, overseeing day-to-day operations of the department. He served as interim AD for two months in 2008 between the firing of Herman Frazier and the hiring of Jim Donovan.

Before coming to UH, Clapp had been athletic director at Saint Mary’s College in Moraga, Calif., the University of Redlands and Avila College in Kansas City.

He has previously been a candidate for AD at UH (2008) and UC Santa Barbara (2008).

Clapp’s son, Justin, is a receiver for the Warriors and was recently awarded a scholarship.

The other candidates for the Montana job are Kent Haslam, associate AD for development with the UM Foundation; John Johnson, senior associate AD at Washington State; and Chris King, AD at Texas-Pan American.

In 2005 then-UH associate AD Tom Sadler was a finalist at Montana. The job eventually went to UM development director Jim O’Day.

Five months ago Montana fired O’Day and football coach Robin Pflugrad for the handling of sexual assault allegations involving athletes, the Missoulian newspaper reported.
