Squash bug - Anasa

Squash bug - Anasa
St. Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota, USA
Size: ~.5"
Almost certain this is an Anasa, but don't know the species. Found overwintering inside a building on the U of M St. Paul campus late February. The picture was taken in early March after I took it home and put it in a plastic cup. It now lives in my room happily feeding on sugar water (as seen in the picture).

It looks like Anasa tristis...
