Kyohei Ushio (Japanese: 潮 喬平, Hepburn: Ushio Kyōhei, 12 December 1934 – 25 March 2010), also spelled Kyoshei Ushio,[1] was a Japanese sprinter. He competed in the men's 100 metres, the men's 200 metres, and the men's 4x100 metres relay at the 1956 Summer Olympics.[2]

Ushio ran 10.5 seconds in the 100 metres on two occasions, both in 1956 (in Nerima) and in 1957 (in Kumamoto), both times winning performances.[1]
